An American taking an unexpected journey on his way to joining the Israeli military. A teenager getting a new perspective on her grandmother. A dancer fleeing an abusive relationship. A struggling actor going on an imaginative journey with a terminally ill child. -- SCV News

Pascal Giocomini
Out of that experience grew not only his film and the sculptures he constructed, but also a collection of large scale photographs that serve as a link between his art and the community. Eight of Giocomini's powerful photographs on canvas add color to an extraordinarily inventive group of seven, mostly metallic, mixed media sculptures. In creations such as “The Harley Ram," Giocomini makes particularly effective use of a variety of curved lines. While displaying an intuitive sense of imagination and whimsy that rivals that of Dr. Seuss, he re-invents a variety of creatures, manipulating found objects into suggestions of body parts. Common, worn out discards transcend their functions to become compelling works of art.
